being short is the way to an efficient market.. a security value is ultimately determined by real numbers.. when Mr Market gets too enthusastic it makes sense there are some investor can bet that the market is momentarily incorrect in the way they value a security.

i find it funny that average people think shorting is bad but if you notice hedge funds (i e wealthy investors) have no problem doing it and making tons of money in the process.
